Waveform started out as "Synth-Op" but after 3 or 4 free issues
they switched it to a paid subscription only model. Everyone had
to pay for a subscription to continue receiving it.
For ME it's too pricey for a thin quarterly magazine.
SOS has always met my needs (paid USA subscriber since the early 90s)
Cheers,
Jeff
